How much you spending on the body work?

Marc burying his head after his shambolic attempt at a handbrake turn and writting my car off into the post....


car's comeing along... bare metal it will really paint well. Can't wait i can paint it.

 

cheers, jeb.

 

ganna get some runs in the shape of JEB

 

If your painting it jebber you better be on your best behaviour lol.

you pumaing tonight ?

 

Whattt! I ment so far with the rear arches, floor, battery tray etc?

 

oh not sure how much so far. gotta pay for the cage aswell thats another 1500 lol excpencive if you want the best lol

 

Okay so tha last update before the new year.
finished of welding the floors and inner sills. so thats the inside solid.



like i said before you will be seeing alot of seem welding. so heres one side of the bay.



then cleaned up




The welds need abit of grinding here and there but im really happy with it. even tho its more for strength i think it looks proper cool it gives the car a real motorsports look. we have also added alot of extra stengthening plates around variose ares of the car. some are visable and some will blend in a not be noticable.

So the plans for next year. get it solid by the end of jan, archs finished and outer sills. with the roof and bulk head cut out.
Then off to rob to fit this.


The original plan was just to get a bolt in but i thaught fooook it and go all out get the proper real deal.

oh yeah and its getting sandblasted well alot of it is. mainly the areas you cant get to with the grinder.

thats it for the duration of this year chaps. merrrry xmas!!! 8)

 

Looking good mate going to be a stunner when finished....keep it up

 

nice progress dude, how you funding all of this ? what do you do? lol

keep up the good work

 

people keep asking me that lol. i just pay for it at the end of each month. this project will drag on for a while so im in no rush, as soon as the shell is painted im gunna put it in the garage on its wheels and leave it for a while i think.

i do alot of the donky work on the shell to keep cost down. with marks ( the painters) approval ovcourse haha.

 

lol, ive noticed people asking that to mate haha.

to be fair everyone, if your living at home and your only love is your car then its easy enough to spunk this sorta cash on it. But if you have a girlfriend who wants to go out with you each weekend plus like me a everyday car to run then u can only set aside a small amount, sometimes nothing at times like now being christmas, unless of course your one of the lucky ones who earns like 2 grand a month take home, certainly not me lol!!!

Cant believe how far your going with this mate, is gonna be epic when finished, i personally cant wait to just see it in paint, gonna look awesome!!!

 

yeah man lets hope its megaa cheers for the comments lol.

 

yea but to be fair, conor keep his life farely simple...same with me if you try and do too much never ganna get any car finished...

 

agreed harry thats the way

 

Thats exactly it Harry, im forever out doing things or out with the girlfriend etc, hence why i cant afford to do much to my turbo very often, plus have my fiesta st which is Ł200 a month on finance.

 

Looking good mate! I need to get my car to the bodyshop yours is at! Their work looks stunning! Im at the same stage as yours at the mo but yours seems to be getting there quicker!! Keep the good work up mate!
